Very walkable

Cute and cozy. Great location to downtown. Easy walk to restaurants, laundromat, pubs and markets. The walls were a bit thin and could hear street noise but it didn’t last long as the city quiets down fairly early. We would reserve this place again!

Cute tiny house in good location

We were looking for a place to stay close to downtown with our own kitchen so we could save on food expenses. This place is cute, tiny, in a great location, and has a fully functional kitchen which is what we needed. Coming in at about the same nightly price as a Bend hotel room, it feels like a much better value. Everything was just as described and the keyless entry was super easy for checking in and out. Neighborhood is very safe, we felt fine parking one car in the driveway and another in the neighborhood (pay careful attention to parking restrictions!). The park and lake across the way were a lovely place to have coffee before walking into town.
